Caruso joined Disrupt as an inside sales and production manager nearly six years ago. She’s earned promotions since then and was most recently senior manager of supply chain and product development – a role in which she was central to advancing the company’s growth domestically and in international markets such as the United Kingdom, continental Europe and Australia.

“Her outstanding contributions and commitment to evolving the product offering have been vital in propelling our business to new heights,” said Disrupt Group co-founder Gary Elphick. “With KellyAnn at the helm, we are confident in the continued success and expansion of our operations.”

As general manager, Caruso’s fundamental charge is to oversee and grow Disrupt Group’s operations. Prior to joining Disrupt, Caruso’s professional background included time in sales director positions in the hospitality industry.

Said co-founder Chris Bailey: “As Disrupt Group continues to evolve and grow, we believe that her strategic vision will play a pivotal role in shaping the future (and fun) of our company.”
